Just wanted to confirm that these guys were brilliant. They called me to confirm the pickup the night before, turned up ten minutes early and he wasn't imping around on a mobile phone the whole time. On the return, the guy had no problems waiting an hour for us to clear Manc Airports amazingly shoddy new automated passport ID system, and happily added an extra drop off on the way back for no extra charge.

Thanks very much for the information about this company.
As well as being very professional, they are actually as competitive as some of the cab firms I called for quotes.
In fact they came back with a price as cheap as the cab firms, at 」110 return, for six people to Leeds/Bradford.
I certainly have more confidence that they'll be there to pick us up at 4am.
The lady is calling me back tomorrow to confirm our booking.
Thanks Pudwoppa. That's one thing I'm no longer worrying about.

Direct Destinations I would recommend.
Very professional service, as well as being one of the most competitive quotes I obtained.

Re: Can anyone recommend an airport transfer?
I forgot to mention that I would not recommend Stanley/Central taxis.

Because they were late picking us up both ways and we were very close to missing the plane from Manchester.
